Figure Lengend Snippet: ( a ) Calibration curves for gold-nanoshell- and gold-nanoparticle-based LFAs with 50 µL of TSH calibrators. The calibration curve (black) obtained with gold nanoshells using DI water as blank showed an LOD of 0.04 µIU/mL. The calibration curve (blue) obtained with gold nanoshells using TSH-depleted serum as blank showed an LOD of 0.16 µIU/mL. ( b ) Calibration curves of gold-nanoshell-based LFAs with 10, 25, and 50 µL of TSH calibrators. ( c ) Calibration curve of gold-nanoshell-based LFA with 50 µL of TSH calibrators, quality controls, and human plasma samples. ( d ) Reproducibility of calibration curves on three different batches of TSH strips.
